My thoughts on the Phillies season.

The Phils continue their visit to San Diego as they go for their fourteenth straight win at Petco Park.

The Phils will be going for their fourteen straight win at Petco Park as they continue their visit with the Padres.

The Phils (7-7, 5th East) continue their trip to San Diego as they plan to go for their third straight win. They will be visting the Padres (3-12, 5th West) as they try to break both their losing straight and the Phils present overall winning streak at their home park. The game will be played at Petco Park and will be starting early at 8:35 pm EDT (5:35 pm PDT). The Phils will send to the mound their ace Roy Halladay (3-0, 1.17), who is coming off a win against the Giants on April 16, where he pitched eight strong innings, giving up only two runs on seven hits and three walks, as he struck out six, in the Phils’ 5-2 win. Halladay career record against the Padres is 3-0 with a 1.90 ERA, while he struck out 29 Padres. He will be going for his fourth straight victory of the seasom, as well as his fourth victory against the Padres, while trying to help pitch the Phils to their fourteenth straight win at Petco Park. The Padres will try to counter with Cory Luebke (1-1, 3.71), who is coming off a win against the Rockies on April 16, as he threw seven strong innings of his own, as he gave up only a run on six hits and a walk, while he struck out four, in the Padres’ 7-1 blowout. Luebke has an 0-1 career record against the Phils with an ERA of 2.25, while striking out seven Phils. He will be trying to stop the Padres present losing streak, while trying to even up his career record against the Phils. The Phils will be out to win their first series on the road, while trying to increase their team record to fourteen straight win at Petco Park.
